Virtual Old Kamakura 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #27 Hoju-in Temple

     There used to be Renge-ji Temple.  The main deity, the statue of Ekadasamukha, who has 11 faces, was said to have been carved by Unkei (?-?).  It is totally unknown when Renge-ji Temple was founded, why and when it was abolished.  The deity was moved to Hoju-in Temple.
